Really want to get into tank styled rbas..

[newguy13]

Want to get into tank styled rbas but dont know where to start...done some research and it seems everyone reccomends rsst or aga type gennies....where shud i start?

And where can i find a good multimeter with out payin arm and a leg..really dont want hardware store style..something designed for vapers

The RSST is a very good starter rba. It has an insulated wick hole which is where a lot of people have problems without that insulation.

Any multimeter that checks for ohms and voltage will work just fine for our needs. The ones in the hardware stores are just fine. Of course the higher the price the more accurate it will be but you don't need to speed an arm and leg for one. I've been using a local hardware store MM for 2 yrs and it does the job.

I second the RSST as being a fantastic starter Genesis-style tank atty. The insulated wick hole really makes life easy when starting out, as it reduces shorts.

With regards to multimeters, any old multimeter will do. Make sure you check the internal resistance first (put it on the lowest ohm setting and touch the two leads together, note the ohm value displayed) and subtract that from your reading. For instance, my Harbor Freight cheapo has an internal resistance of .6 ohms, so if my atty registered 2.6 ohms then I subtract the .6 and note that my real resistance is 2.0 ohms.

If you looking for something purpose-built for vapers, Madvapes sells a ohm meter that has 510 (and 808) connection right on it... screw down your atty and flip the switch, instant ohm reading. I have one and it works wonderfully. Unfortunately, they are frequently out of stock on it, and it's a $20 one-trick pony. Worth it to me, as everything I use now is a rebuildable.
